If you think one of your Hiway accounts has been compromised, contact us immediately at 651.291.1515 or 800.899.5626. For all other compromised accounts, you'll want to contact the organization directly as soon as you suspect it has been compromised. If your driver's license or other government identification was stolen, contact the issuers of the documents and cancel the previous documents and request replacements.
Additionally, to prevent this from happening again, take the following steps:
- File your complaint at www.ftc.gov, and then visit the FTC's Identity Theft page to learn how to minimize your risk of damage from ID theft.
- File a report about your identity theft with local law enforcement.
- Call any one of the three major consumer reporting companies and place a 'fraud alert' on your credit reports. This will alert creditors to call for your approval if they receive applications to open new accounts.
